Can't test ride it - but I bought a 99 in the last month and I can list all of the things I have had to do and have found \ things for you to check ;)
Fuel pump filters - age of bike and stuff - found mine were clogged up - turf them out and put an inline fuel filter (Split pump, remove filters and rebuild pump, get fuel hose and replace the one going to the fuel pump and put an inline fuel filter (Use an L shape flow one!)
Had to replace a lot of the O-Rings in the fuel rail and some grommets on a few injectors
Disc's all round
Head steam bearings and wheel bearings
air filter and a damn good tune up
Cam chain replacement
Oil sump plug stripped so replace with a new oil pan!
Rec\Reg known to go \ or melt the plugs due to Suzuki just crimping the wires and no solder! (Easy fix to replace the plug BTW - 5 bucks at Jaycar for the very SAME plug! Just solder the wires on to the blades and it wont melt again.)
Also have to remember here in VIC they take photos now of the bikes when a roady is done. So you need stock pipes, stock undertail, stock blinkers etc etc.
I have a full stock system if you need a loan of one
Wow thats a fair list to get through and I hate doing mechanical work ,I very much appreciate the lend of yr stock system ,have to c how I go I have got a trade plate coming it would be nice if I could get away with that !
